Help required for Mail Scenerio

[former_member320236]

Hi Folks,

I am configuring Mail to file scenario in SAP PO.

I have to read the mail attachments from specific email address and place the attachment in the file path.

I have used payload swap bean to retrieve and place the attachment in the file path.

Now additional requirement is to read the mail from specific email address.

For example:

Email server receiving mails with attachment ..

Requirement:Mail adapter should pick only the attachment from my mail ID.

Can anybody help me on this?

Whether this requires mapping in ESR?

Regards,

Hi Pavithra,

Read the mail with attachment, in the sender mail adapter using PayloadSwapBean adapter module to swap the attachment to main payload and send it to file adapter.

Hi Praveen,

I used Payload swapbean to read the attachment and its working fine.

My problem is not to read the attachment.

I have to read the mail attachment from specific sender.

Hi Pavitra,

Move the mails to specific folder which is receiving from specific sender then configure you sender mail adapter to pick up from that folder.

Is there any way apart from this?

Is it possible in using POP3 protocol?

Or we have to use IMAP4 protocol?

Praveen,

Is it possible to read the mail from folder in POP3?

[former_member186851 · Accepted solution]

Hello Pavithra,

POP3 is for retrieving mails from mail server and imap is for retrieving from folders in mail box.

Hi Pavithra,

The best and more standard way is to use PayloadSwapBean module as Praveen said. Another way is to read the attachment in a java mapping. You can check how to read a PI attachment in this blog

Hello Pavithra,

It depends on your requirement,

If you wish to convert the attachments you need mapping.
